BREAKING: SEPULVEDA TEARS ACL, OUT FOR SEASON

The Steelers have already signed punter Paul Ernster off waivers from the Detroit Lions as Sepulveda's replacement. Ernster spent last year with the Cleveland Browns and was a 7th round pick of the Denver Broncos in 2005. The Steelers did not have another true punter in camp.

Sepulveda was a 4th-round pick in 2007 when the Steelers actually traded up to snag him. He averaged 42 yards per punt with a long of 59 last season.
